We had heard great things about taking a boat tour of the Bosphorous, so we decided to give it a try. We took the metro again from Sultanahmet to the New Mosque, and walked, not very far, to where the docks are.

While we were waiting for the tour to commence, we admired the floating "fish bread" restaurants.

We're not going to be able to identify all of the buildings we saw from the river. This is one example.

A nice look out the back of the boat that Eero took. His vantage point is a little lower than that of an adult.

This is another cool one that we don't know what it is.

Eero and Cielo had a great time. It helped that we kept up a good speed.

We did pass under the Bosphorous Bridge.

Eero liked it so much he decided a kiss was called for.

This is another cool building.

Another mosque.
